Evaluation of Kaiser MX19-B and MX19-C Aluminum Honeycomb Landing Mat

Abstract

The report describes an investigation conducted to evaluate the MX19 aluminum honeycomb-core landing mat with modified male and female hinge-type connectors. The MX19 mat was a sandwich-type structure composed of an aluminum honeycomb core bonded by an adhesive to top and bottom aluminum sheets. The extruded aluminum edge connectors were welded to the sheets and bonded with adhesive to the core. The panels were joined along two edges by a hinge-type male/female connection. The adjacent edges were joined by an overlap/underlap connection secured by a locking bar.
